our little sprouts


My heart skipped a beat when I first saw these photos from Jefra.
Then my pregnant self couldn't decide whether to start crying, laughing, or squeal for Collin in the other room. So I think I did all of the above. At once. It was lovely.
We gushed over them like crazy! Especially since q & a were tucked peacefully in dreamland so we weren't distracted by silly parenting sayings. Like "stop stepping on your sister, don't stick that in your nose, color on paper not on the wall, don't hug the bee you'll get stung... again."
Most of the time when someone comes over, even Aunts and Uncles, big sis will say, "Hi. I'm Avery and this is my best friend, Quincey."
Can't believe we'll have another one of these cute little sprouts... in about 14 weeks.


Working on Spark and getting everything ready for the big bash!! You can still register!

Also, I'll launch registration for my second online class tomorrow at 8pm Pacific time. Should be a fun one!

They are precious beyond words! Three is a really fun number... well, for me it freaked me out just a teensy bit when I realized that we were outnumbered, but we wouldn't have it any other way!

Wow, what beautiful photos, the one of the girls looking at each other laughing is priceless, and the last black and white one, Quincy's eyes are electric, my little guy has super blue eyes like her, blond curly hair too, I love it! They are so adorable, can't wait to see your third! Have a good week, we are enjoying the last week of summer before my daughter goes into 5th grade and my son into 8th, time flies...

I can vouch! I've been favored with the wonderful introduction by Avery upon arriving at your door; oh, she is precious;
A sister is the best gift you can give a daughter! (when they are being sweet!)

And Liz, you and Collin make such beautiful babies I can hardly wait to meet She Who Must Not Be Named.
Yet.
You have a wonderful way of capturing the joys of motherhood in your writing; as well as your design. Thanks for sharing your world . . .
with our world!

Kudos to your photographer, she absolutely captured the moment. What a wonderful lasting memory of q&a...love, love the one of them laughing. You will love 3, I did and now they are starting their families too!

Laura said...

Absolutely LOVE these photos! The photographer did an AMAZING job. I love the lighting.

I'm glad to know you are able to have 2+ kids, hold a job, and have a wonderful marriage. We are planning for our 3rd, and sometimes (during tantrums by our 4 year old) I think we're crazy. :)
